Time to pull out the broom...
Okay, let's start the day off with a quick summary of some of the Halo 4 stuff we missed yesterday - I'm guessing the flood of info will settle down into a much more reasonable flow going forward.
- NeoGAF's Devolution was invited at the last minute to participate in the Spring Showcase event last week - not because she's a member of the press, but because she's a fan, and she lives in San Francisco (where the event was held), and the stars lined up. Her writeup of the evening has a different flavor than the stuff you've probably seen from journalists - since YOU'RE probably a fan, too, you should read it. I've linked to a repost, because it's in a currently-live thread, if you want to participate in the discussion.
- GiantBomb released their video overview of the whole event (the Halo content starts here) - they know what they're talking about, and their points are salient. Thanks, Zeouterlimits.
- Gamerlive.tv has an interview with Kiki Wolfkill - not a huge amount of content, but an interesting read nonetheless.
- G4TV's Adam Sessler sat down with Frank O'Connor and Kiki Wolfkill - it's amazing how much you can cover in a couple of minutes. Thanks, CyReN.
- NowGamer bulleted what they thought was important from the Spring Showcase info dump - nice summary.
- OKM took a look at some comments by Frank O'Connor about how Halo 4 is pushing the Xbox360 to its limits (this is a GOOD thing, unless your machine is near the end of its life). Thanks, Kibbles.
- Enfinit stopped in to let us know that he's compiled a list of all Halo 4-related content - not just from yesterday, but ALL content. And not just articles, but screenshots, animated gifs, you name it. You need to visit Halo Waypoint to see the list. (As we mentioned yesterday, Forward Unto Dawn's Halo 4 Reveal Hub plays a similar role, though it's focused on what was released yesterday.) Looking over both of these, there are a couple of articles I might have missed - so go check 'em for yourself!
I'm sure there'll be more content as the day goes on - but it won't be anywhere near as overwhelming as yesterday! (Louis Wu 13:36:46 UTC)

Halo 4: Story and Vision
GameTrailers has an interview with Kiki Wolfkill - did you know Halo 4 starts 5 years after Halo 3 ends? I didn't. Thanks, stryker1138. (Louis Wu 14:29:13 UTC)

Kill 'em all... you know the rest
Rockslider has started up a new video series - this one is characterized as a collection of "kill-em all speed run movies". The first one is a run (literally) through AotCR, on Legendary, no vehicles, no sniper rifle. There are even outtakes. Go watch! (Louis Wu 15:23:09 UTC)

One of the early ones retires
CyReN stopped by yesterday to point out that Dave 'Walshy' Walsh has officially announced his retirement from Major League Gaming, and will be commentating instead, starting in Columbus at the end of this month. RVideo also sent along a link from The Halo Forum, with some community reactions to the news. (Louis Wu 17:50:14 UTC)

Funding the Arts - in a really cool way
OboeCrazy stopped in to announce a new Kickstarter program; she'd love to make Oboe music in cool places (especially married to videogames, Halo in particular), but needs your help to afford equipment and travel expenses! Go read the page for full details - and remember, like any Kickstarter project, she only gets funded if her pledge level reaches her goal. You can get her there! (Louis Wu 12:48:11 UTC)

Capturing Subjects Both Vague & To-Scale With Equal Brilliance
Some say that his screenshots are laced with libido, and that if shown his artwork, patients once thought comatose awaken with all the knowledge in the universe. All we know is he's called The Hedge. Don't miss his newest batch of highlight shots of HBO Community Customs madness, as well as a Special Tribute to Stephen "Actually, I'M Correct" Loftus. Check them out! (GrimBrother One 18:13:31 UTC)

An Old Bungie Boy's New Toys
While not Halo-specific, news just came down via the Bungie Twitter feed that former Bungie co-founder Alex Seropian has started a new mobile-game development studio called Industrial Toys aimed at the "core gamer". More info can be found in this article from Pocketgamer. Good luck, Alex! (GrimBrother One 17:31:22 UTC)

Only 51 betrayals? For shame.

Thanks For The Continuing Legacy, Brian
We start off today's news on a more emotional note... HBO stalwart mad.max paid us a visit to remind us all that it's been a staggering nine years ago now since the Halo - and more specifically Bungie - community lost one of its brightest beacons, Brian Morden, or *Ar-Isildur as he was known to many. His post gives a link as well to the Foundation set up in his name. If you were never privileged to meet his acquaintance, you'll want to check out this link, which will give you a glimpse into this amazing person's life. If you get a chance, stop by the forums and celebrate his legacy by sharing a story. Leaving readers with a good memory and a big smile has to be the best way to remember such an awesome friend.

See Now They're Just Toying With Us
Halo Waypoint has given us one of our first proper looks at some of the upcoming figures from McFarlane Toys, including a prototype of the Halo 4 Master Chief. Definitely go and give it a look, and then drop back by our forum and discuss it in this thread started by prominent HBO-er Hyokin. Go look! (GrimBrother One 05:12:55 UTC)

So I Was Hunting Some Moa...
HAL0 M4N wanted to share a new machinima project he has started called "Requiem". The first episode can be found here. While you can definitely tell some of the VO is still trying to find its footing, it has some neat action and an interesting concept. Also, I laughed out loud at "But that's...illegal." It only clocks in just over 2 minutes, so give it a chance! (GrimBrother One 14:18:45 UTC)

Tyrant's Halo 3 Legendary Walkthrough - Tsavo Highway
The Tyrant has released his Legendary Walkthrough of Halo 3's Tsavo Highway - Brutes galore! The video itself is about 13 and a half minutes long, but Tyrant was having issues with his computer recently; there's 20+ minutes of blackscreen at the end of it. Not to worry, though; the video contains all the tips and tricks you'll need to beat this level on Legendary, with a bunch of skulls (though not all) on! (Louis Wu 23:18:21 UTC)

What is Halo - to you?
Leviathan stopped by in the early-morning hours to start one of those threads that just makes me happy. He wanted to know: What is "Halo"? When I first started reading, I worried that there would be a lot of arguing about TUs and Assault Rifles... but there doesn't seem to be much, if any, of that. Instead, it's all about what brings people back, day after day, week after week, year after year. It's uplifting. Go read - and contribute! (Louis Wu 17:55:30 UTC)

Capturing a Community Convocation
Passion. Courage. Valor. Honor. All of these words have one thing in common... they all have two syllables. I made a two-syllable sound when I saw these latest screenshots by Hedgemony as well, but I'm not allowed to repeat it in a newspost. Go and see last night's HBO Community Customs adventure through the eyes and the lens of an outback genius. You won't be disappointed. (GrimBrother One 16:23:41 UTC)

A bit about Bungie Pro
Roger 'Sawnose' Wolfson posted in Bungie.net's forum yesterday to clarify a little about the Bungie Pro service - what will happen on March 31, and what will happen further down the road. (His first post started that thread, and the followup, with more Halo-specific info, is here.)

Halo Data to migrate from B.net before April
If you swing by Bungie.net, you'll see a new article - it puts a final date on the live Halo data they'll be able to manage. That date is March 31 - after that point, all stats (and any other online features related to Halo games) will be found only on Halo Waypoint. Here's hoping that Waypoint stats can be fleshed out a bit more, and features like film clips and screenshots can be migrated by then! (Historical data isn't going anywhere; Bungie will continue to maintain what they already have online. They simply will not be adding NEW data after that date.) (Louis Wu 19:45:14 UTC)

Hedge's Pics Always Get My Pulse Racing
Today's HBO update comes to you live from the media center at Daytona International Speedway, where your race-weathered Grim has ducked into to keep race fans informed of of various speedy-goings on, and Halo fans informed of our favorite franchise. We're now into the 19th hour into the Rolex 24 Hours, and normally, it's hard for me to feel like much compares to the raw and elegant beauty of a proper race car at speed. However, our beloved Hedgemony certainly makes a strong push for top spot on the podium with his latest round of gorgeous screenshots and panos from the most recent Community Customs night. They have awakened my tired and sleepy eyes, and I think they'll do the same for you... check it out! (GrimBrother One 16:07:03 UTC)

Quack Quack Quack
Three days, three new comics from pete_the_duck. Four, actually. His anti-SOPA entry made me put my thumbs up, I AM HAVING SO MUCH FUN gives you his view of Armor Lock, and The oldest question, answered made me laugh out loud. Start your weekend with some Halo-related duck humor! (Louis Wu 21:26:57 UTC)
